Red River Valley Amateur Radio Club
Amateur Radio in and around the Red River Valley Area of Northeast Texas
All,
On February 1 media reported that a gunman had been stopped by Swaim Hardware personnel. Here are some of the headlines – Paris business employees tackle gunman, bomb squad called for suspicious device – kxiinews12 Paris business employees tackle gunman, bomb squad called for suspicious device – Employee tackles gunman in store, officers shut down downtown for bomb squad | News 12. On February 2 KTEN published this updated story – Man arrested for pulling gun on a store employee in Paris. The perpetrator was identified as Jesse James Thompson and there have been no other news updates. I have some “crawlers” looking for updates and if anyone gets one, please update this story.
